Well, unfortunately, if you are web hosting company, then a *large* percentage of your customers are going to want Microsoft Frontpage Extensions support. There's no way that you can web host in this day, and not have FP extensions support. This isn't going to get any better either. W/the impending release of Office 2000, suddenly you going to convert every Microsoft Office user who isn't already using Frontpage into a Frontpage user (Frontpage 2000 will be bundled w/Office 2000). And w/practically anyone who has a computer using Office, well... Frontpage isn't going to go away. ----- Sumbry][ | Affinity Hosting | http://affinity.net | sumbry@affinity.net "Run, run, fast as ya can, ya can't catch me, I'm the Gingerbread Man."
